Sweden’s classic rock heavyweights SPIRITUAL BEGGARS premiered the video clip for “Wise As A Serpent,” the opening track of the band’s stunning new album Earth Blues.

The band’s guitarist and main songwriter, Michael Amott, checked in to comment on the clip:

“We chose this particular song as the first video off ‘Earth Blues’ ‘cos it’s an explosive track and also the shortest song on the album! I filmed and directed the video myself and Anders Björler (AT THE GATES) did a great job on the edit. We’re more than pleased with the end result, it’s done in true DIY spirit…raw and authentic.”

Earth Blues is the band’s 8th studio release and marks SPIRITUAL BEGGARS’ 20th anniversary as a band. The album will be released on April 15th in Europe and April 16th in North America via InsideOut Music.
